Atasas Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Public Knowledge posts a video from the recent State of the Net Conference, at which the RIAA's Cary Sherman discusses ISP piracy filters. Of course, many piracy filtering systems like the one being tested by AT&T could easily be bested by encryption. Sherman has a solution for that: spyware/software on your PC, buried in your anti-virus software or within your modem that would restrict you from viewing certain content:Filters can be put in the applications for example. You know, one could have a filter on the end user’s computer that would actually eliminate any benefit from…encryption because if you want to hear it, you’d have to decrypt it, and at that point the filter could work. Why would somebody put that on their machine? They likely wouldn't want to do that, they'd do that when it benefits them such as for viruses...Several times Sherman infers that ISP systems that simply inform customers that what they're doing is wrong could stop piracy (though years of lawsuits and subsequent press coverage failed to do that). It's clear however that to be truly effective, Sherman sees a future where your ISP, modem, PC, router and perhaps anti-malware software all work together to protect the entertainment industry's profit margins."

shought Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 As far as i'm concerned there is no law that tells you which antivirus to use... So if the right people just create one superduper, megacool antivirus which hasn't got this idiot prevention methods in it, they're screwed(again). And please do they seriously think that there will be rules making antivirus corporations do such things anytime soon? I know if more morons get into politics eventually they might pull this stuff through... But since that is(not yet) the case, we shouldn't worry.But common! You can't take this shit serious man. Don't they have anything better to do than making ridiculous statements? Well let's all hope they stick with doing just that, this way they won't annoy everyone... It looks like they are stupid because they state these things, but probably(that i'd be the one that has to say this) not. They just state something outrageous, and hope that many people start thinking about it and some will eventually get to a wrong conclusion. This way they get more attention and they might even trick people into believing their bullshit. Or they're just a bunch of f%#@ing wankers.I'd like to take this opportunity to make another ridicule and outrageous statement: Let's make everything free! Sharing and caring. Everyone is allowed to take anything he/she wants. Copyright.. what's that? We're going to turn freedom of speech into freedom of doing everything(except for annoying me of course). And antivirus programs are no longer allowed to block viruses because someone made them, sent them to you and this way it would we limiting his freedom to block that particular virus from entering your computer. Are we discovering a pattern here..?Rules are just guidelines, they can't tell you exactly what you should and what you shouldn't do. If you take rules to serious, you end up with the same stuff you made the rules for; problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irefay Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 Lol some people live their lives saving the world and making people's lives more enjoyable.... than you have organizations like the RIAA who are funded by corporate scum and there only purpose is law enforcement. The only thing is they answer to the almighty dollar instead of the people which they police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justme Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 [Filters can be put in the applications for example. You know, one could have a filter on the end user’s computer that would actually eliminate any benefit from…encryption because if you want to hear it, you’d have to decrypt it, and at that point the filter could work. I guess that would elimenate online banking and any secure transaction from ebay or any other site on the web as they are all encrypted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isepiq Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 ENE1 remember that time that Intel came out with that CPU that uniquely identified itself over the internet??????? It wasn't long until enough people found out about it & Intel had to come out with a 'fix' to turn it off, hhahahahahahahhahahahha. OR Sony's embedded malware protection & they had to turn around & provide a free fix for end users to get it OFF their computers??????.IMHOisepiq :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
